Need to add this to my Book Collection

A photobook collecting the lifetime work of legendary Fashion photographer Guy Bourdin.

Who's Guy Bourdin? He's said to be the most influential Fashion Photographer of all time with many famous photographers now directly influenced by his aesthetic (Mert&Marcus and Miles Aldridge are both very Guy Bourdin-esque fashion photographers.)

He's said to blur the line between advertising photography,fashion photography and fine art photography. That's why I love him so much he has such a unique vision if you would just google about it.Such complex images with such intense and sometimes hidden emotion,true work of an artist. Not all photographs can be considered as an work of art,some are merely recording the moment,but Guy's pictures are definitely art. And I dont love photography if it's not art.
